- Corporate giants from Amazon to CVS are investing billions into primary-care practices. It’s part of a sweeping shift in U.S. healthcare to a more value-based model. Here’s what that means for doctors, patients and health insurers.

How about make a universal basic healthcare services and cost . I.e a floor with the minimum needed to have a decent healthcare system with fixed and transparent prices across the USA as opposed to having contracted, non transparent conditional, adaptive pricing which is negotiated between all businesses including the hospitals via their chargemasters…
These companies are just trying to make more money. It has nothing at all to do with value based care. I see many (poor) offers from these companies, and I do not intend to work for them as a primary care physician.
Exactly!!
@@arielle-cheriepaterson7851 👍👍
Companies objective is to make money 🤦♀
100% - they are going to use them as starting points to upsell their expensive services and pharma products. Love how comfortable people seem with the idea of amazon buying up primary care networks though lol
no your ttrying to make more money and cvs is putting an end to that.
Isn't there a student debt forgiveness floating around in Congress right now? Maybe they could approve forgiving graduating doctors if they go into PCP, allowing them to take a much lower salary and go into PCP.
Poor people don't deserve debt forgiveness
Want to REALLY reduce healthcare costs? Focus more on preventative care. Reactionary care will routinely cost more, regardless if it’s fee for service or value-based care.
Agreed
Exactly, but pharma and hospital systems can't monetize that.
The editor really liked the sound of coins, I see.
Gurl, who doesnt
Excellent video. More LEGO productions please.
a value based system would definitely bring down costs and seems better for patient outcomes but I worry the the savings will just be turned into profit for these companies.
I will never go to a doctor or take any medication that came threw Amazon in any way....
There being a "market" for healthcare is the core of the issue
As a registered nurse, I can see why there's a large push for nurse practitioners: there's not enough primary care providers in the US.
But NP's don't make as much as PCP's.
As a matter of fact I make more as a floor RN than an NP.
Interesting. I don't see how lower costs ever translate to better care. Too much money to be made in our Healthcare system. Look at Advantage plans and how they make them sound so great with constant advertising but yhey don't tell you the real facts about co-pays and higher death rates.
And the Advantage plans don't pay for anything, misleading people and causing gaps in care.
WSJ doing some cute Pharma advertising
How was that advertising? My feelings after watching is more skeptical if anything
Amazon?..I don't know if I like Amazon being too many things..the reason being is that:Amazon hires people at its facilities in waves for say..15dollars per hour..then Amazon lays that whole wave off before they get raises..and is always building hubs,so they can lay-off at this hub and hire at this hub and keep the rate of pay at 15dollars..Amazon is sly,so would you want to work under them anywhere else?..Amazon laying off and hiring at the same time is the biggest "flim-flam" ever!
Don't know what you are talking everyone working at any Amazon facility in Illinois is making a minimum 20 dollars an hour get your facts straight and more people quit than get fired you git that
@@ap4610-kx1mb oh.. but what about everywhere else? Do you know?..get All the facts from other states..THEN come at me broh..start with michigan..
Not true. 22$ an hour with incentives to start here. People regularly go on leave or quit for various reasons. Amazon has to stay staffed while managing payroll. Most employees like working there.
Good luck trying to find staff!
There’s a shortage of medical staff
More like ravishing
Really interested to see if Kermit PPI can continue gaining traction to help hospitals curb these crazy costs. I know they help with capitated pricing
It makes it sound like value-based care is free compared to fee-for-service, but we all know that's not the case.
My mum and sister in law both work in the medical sector. They both say that when Americans come in they always ask for way more tests than they really need and don't trust that 99% of the time the doctor already knows what you have before they do the one test and second third and fourth tests are unnecessary.
Anyone else love this ladies voice? It’s like unintentional ASMR
My only gripe about this is, you have a convenience store managing actual Pcp’s
To make more money
That is so scary....
Omg i love they put Lego in this video
Simply put, Healthcare is just another corporate business, profits over care at all costs. Treat your patients well, without them you will be nothing.
Looking good Walgreens complete home products.
Corporations should be limited to a certain number of sectors. This is ridiculous. What's next? Amazon universities?
how? by selling drugs without prescription
Good luck getting good care from qualified physicians after turning over your care to companies who’s primary goal is to turn a profit. Get ready to see mid level providers like nurse practitioners and physician assistants with only a fraction of training as a real physician making medical decisions to help the company cut costs and save money. Then when something goes wrong, they tell you to go to the ER to see a real physician.
NP and PAs work in ERs too.
Cancelled debt kudios.
Erased medical debt. Ohio and illinois.
Gas station s and feilds close . too all start looking cant loose potato farming etc.
Hey this is good. The new paradigm mixing with the old one is will help bring down prices while keeping quality high and will incentivize students to become PCPs
Keeping quality …where is the quality…it’s missing. Hardly motivate …when too many Chiefs and nothing is improving.
Nah, American healthcare is absurdly expensive, but the U.S. has some of the most quality healthcare in the world (looking at general trends, not individual experiences).
It's always about profit! Everything shouldn't always be about the almighty dollar! How about value of human beings lives for a change? Healthcare should be a sacred space and not exploited by capitalism and greed!!
Why does Amazon stick its nose everywhere
Well Mews huge but misguided coverage
#canada something to think about
Lol why would you compare PCP ratio in France instead of Canada?? We're next door and at opposite ends of the chart you showed, that made no sense to me
Cold press coconuts machine
Lego figure so cute 😍
